Testimonials

Our family stayed here for a couple of weeks and we all loved it. The house is nicely renovated inside and out, everything is very comfortable and thoughtfully considered, it had everything we needed and more. The team are good to communicate with and very attentive for anything that might come up. Would absolutely stay here again, the location and area is fantastic too!

We had a wonderfully peaceful 2 week break during the Christmas holidays at this gorgeously appointed home. Everything was as pictured and more! We thoroughly appreciated all the thoughtful and luxurious touches around the home and wanted for nothing with all the amenities that were provided. Ellie and Tim are so lovely and were very responsive any time we reached out with questions — Tim even stopped by on Xmas Eve to help us figure out the pool heater.

We had such an amazing time making memories with our family around the beautiful backyard and spent a lot of time in the pool and spa. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay (despite the moody weather!) We will definitely be back and look forward to a new annual tradition of Christmas among the palm trees! Thanks again for a lovely stay.

We just spent 5 weeks here (things you do when you turn 60!) and it was exquisite! the home and all its amenities suited us perfectly! We enjoyed everything – the beach (& Christine’s golf cart rides), the shopping & restaurants (Mercato, 5th Ave, Third St, Waterside) all amazing! sunsets and nighttime swims/hot tub, morning walks, bike rides, quiet evenings and cooking at home (not many 🙂 ). Couldn’t have had a better time anywhere else.

The house (Ellie & Tim) it was all amazing! A great winter escape – we will be back next year 2025 for a longer stay. Thanks for sharing your home.

We absolutely loved the house, the pool, the bikes, and the location. There was plenty of room for the four of us and the pool was heated just right. We were close to the beach, shopping, and dining. Ellie and Tim are amazing to work with; everything went smoothly from planning to arrival to checking out. Hope to visit Naples again soon, and would definitely stay in the same place.

We had a most enjoyable month long stay at The Sea Salt Cottage. It was very clean and was well equipped with everything we needed to make it feel like home. The new pool area was perfect especially when we had a family of 5 with us. Plenty of comfortable seating for all. Having the beach nearby was an added bonus for many sunsets. The owners were very responsive to all our needs, which was not much since the house was extremely maintained. Our small dog enjoyed the fenced in yard and walks in the neighborhood.

The cottage was everything we were looking for. The location is amazing, central to everything one could want. The home itself is tastefully furnished and has all the finishing touches needed for any length stay. The yard is pure perfection. We are looking forward to returning next season.

An Absolutely Stunning Home! The location was perfect, very close to Vanderbilt Beach. The house has everything you need! 4 Bikes, 6 beach chairs, and an umbrella for the beach which was walking/biking distance! Near Restaurants, and a State Park with beach access! Did I mention the Pool and Spa!! Beautiful and clean! We grilled outside in the outdoor kitchen/living area, and watched the Packers beat the Lions on Thanksgiving! Luxury at its best! Comfortable Beds! Beautifully decorated! Lastly, the service, if needed was just a text away! I loved the book of all the recommendations! Highly Highly Recommend! We will definitely be back! We celebrated our 25 Wedding Anniversary with our 3 adult children. Everything was Perfect!

The problem was the trip was far too short which will give you an idea as to the reaction to this very nice getaway. Starting with a simple booking through Tim and Ellie we had no clue what awaited us! There is so much positive to be cited so not sure where to start. You walk into a well done coastal vibe that lets you know there is fun in store. With our time we kept to simple things.

A must is an easy stroll to the beach. We realized we were on the 500 block which put us so close to Vanderbilt we had to go watch a gorgeous sunset. Took the bikes out and rode to dinner. You’re within a rocks-throw a lot of restaurants, so take advantage. When ready for some zen take a swim in the saltwater pool! Everything you need is provided for you which makes it that much easier to enjoy. What a great experience. We will be back and longer the next time.

This is the second time we stayed at Sea Salt Cottage. We were pleasantly surprised with the addition of a pool and backyard landscaping. It was a nice treat to have our own little oasis!!! Ellie and Tim are great communicators who strive to make your visit as pleasant as possible. They exceeded our expectations again! Everything was great! We chose to return to Sea Salt Cottage because of its location (close to shopping, restaurants and beaches), its cleanliness and we really liked the open concept layout. It was perfect for our family of 4. Highly recommend Sea Salt Cottage. You will not be disappointed!!!!!!

The house is just as described! We came from out of state but the owners were great communicators and made the vacation seamless! We were not far from the beach but far enough to be away from crowds. We took the bicycles (included) to the beach and didn’t have to find parking. However our favorite part Hands Down was the POOL! It’s perfect for a family of all ages. We spent most of our time at the house because we enjoyed it so much. This is the place to stay if you want what you pay for. 100% would stay here again and again! PS we left some items behind and they promptly mailed them to us! Best hosts ever!!

It was our pleasure to be guests in this house, very close to two beaches, safe neighbourhood. The pool was a great replacement for the beach during the hot sunny days in Florida. Hosts (Ellie & Tim) were great, no issues at all – they have provided a lot of useful information during our stay, starting with warm welcome. bathrooms were new and cleaned well, A/C is running great, almost everything has been upgraded recently. We look forward to return again next year.

How often does a home welcome you in? Walk into Sea Salt and feel like it’s your home away from home. That’s your first impression. Not any one thing jumps out but it’s open, well laid out, well decorated, and in walking distance to shops, restaurants, and beach. Need more? Spend time lounging in chairs in the pool…yes, sit in chairs in the pool at the end of your day! We are definitely coming back!

Our stay here was exceptional! Everything was clean, neat, and tidy – zero clutter. I really loved how it was so beautifully decorated too, helps feel more like a home and made it so welcoming! The linens, pillows, and beds were all very comfortable. Big closets for luggage and hanging things if needed. Bathrooms were very clean and spacious as well. The pool area is gorgeous, with a wonderful screened in, eat in patio as well. The home is fully equipped for the beach and pool, including towels, chairs, umbrellas, etc… There is even a beach cart service that provides the area with rides back and forth! Bottom line, rent this home!

I like to thank Ellie Penaranda the broker for the amazing service. She is prompt in response and finding vacation properties for me and my family. I also like to thank the property owners for the beautiful home equity with everything you need when vacationing and renting a vacation property. We felt like we were at home. We had all the amenities needed. The property was clean, modern and appliances up to date. The outdoor was gorgeous and we enjoyed cooking and swimming in the well maintained pool.

I highly recommend this place! It was tastefully decorated, had items to get us started (and then some), clean, and the location was perfect! Our family loved the area and really took advantage of Vanderbilt Beach which was a short walk/bike ride away. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from and the grocery stores were conveniently only a hop-skip-and a jump away. The king bed in the Master Bedroom was super comfortable; I slept like a baby every night. Highly recommend this place for a couple or a family. We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing time at this house which was very close to the beach. The house was spotless with lots of amenities and Ellie and Tim were wonderful hosts. We will be back for sure!

This was our second year renting Second Wind, and we love this home. It is tastefully decorated and roomy. The heated pool is an added bonus, not to mention the location is close to the beach, shopping, restaurants, and many other amenities. Ellie and Tim took wonderful care of us. When we had an issue with the master bath, it was addressed immediately. I would highly recommend this property and Steps to the Beach Rentals!

My family just rented this wonderful home for close to 3 weeks. We had spent the summer in Naples and desperately wanted to come back. The house was great and had everything we needed for ourselves and 3 kids. The location is perfect and the pool is a great size. The backyard was also perfect for our dog since it was fenced in and has a grass area. The neighbors were all so friendly and the convenience to 41 and all the amenities was great. Ellie and her husband, Tim, were an absolute pleasure to work with and gave us tons of tips and advice. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!

We moved from the desert to Naples and chose Last Mango as our landing pad. It was the perfect place for us to catch our breath after moving across the country. We stayed for 2 months and felt immediately at home in this well equipped place that had everything we needed. There was even sunscreen, beach chairs and rafts- didn’t expect that! The location is perfect. When we weren’t running or biking to the beach, we were in the beautiful back yard by the sparkling pool. The pool pump broke and was fixed immediately when we reported it. I totally recommend this property for a short or longer term stay! Thanks Ellie!
